This seminar's objective is to expose the students to the traditional research associated with Operations Management. Early work done in the areas of inventory, scheduling, facility layout and logistics are generally considered the foundation on which traditional OM research has built. While highly quantitative, the seminar focuses on the means by which the research was (1) conducted, (2) linked to real problems, (3) implemented (or not implemented), and (4) the research opportunities that have been or could be exploited.
